1. Just as I am, without one plea,
But that Thy blood was shed for me,
And that Thou bidd’st me come to Thee,
O Lamb of God, I come,
O Lamb of God, I come!
Just as I am, and waiting not,
To rid my soul of one dark blot,
To Thee whose blood can cleanse each spot,
O Lamb of God, I come!
O Lamb of God, I come!
2. Just as I am, tho’ tossed about
With many a conflict, many a doubt,
Fightings within, and fears without,
O Lamb of God, I come,
O Lamb of God, I come!
Just as I am, poor, wretched, blind,
Sight, riches, healing of the mind,
Yea, all I need in Thee to find,
O Lamb of God, I come!
O Lamb of God, I come!
3. Just as I am Thou wilt receive,
Wilt welcome, pardon, cleanse, relieve,
Because Thy promise I believe,
O Lamb of God, I come,
O Lamb of God, I come!
Just as I am, Thy love unknown,
Hath broken ev’ry barrier down,
Now to be Thine, yea, Thine alone,
O Lamb of God, I come!
O Lamb of God, I come!
Amen.
